On/ Off feature to hide/unhide a channel's main room messages

Fri, 16 Sep 2016 13:09:40 +0000

Hello. I am a user of the chat website http://indiachat.com/flash.php
thanks to the good service of LibraIRC.

I have a requirement in the main room of any channel as I had a discussion with Sicilia who attended me in #help channel.
and as per advice, I am posting this in front of you.

In short:
When I log in to any channel, I see public messages of all users , join & leaving notification of users in the main room of the channel. My req. is to have feature to a clean main room w/o any messages there.

Detail:
when i am in a channel, other people are talking in the main channel room
meaning i am able see to their messages.. publicly.. and this scrolls up automatically..also join/ quit messages also appear..
I don't want to see others' messages right in there.
i want to suppress main messages..
i don't want to view those which are not relevant to me. (Why should I read the messages between two 3rd persons?)

as a solution i dont want to ignore users using /ignore theirnick also. (because it will prevent them to pvt msging)

For example, when I am talking to some1 in pvt in the channel.. for about 20 mins, during the time all main messages scroll up a lot and it is all unnecessary to me. (so at least I need to turn the messages off for 20 mins)

I require an On/ Off method in each main of each channel to hide/ unhide such messages.

3 reasons why I need this on/ off feature are:
1) these messages are not important to me - so I don't want
2) sometimes distracting me when scrolling up faster and cannot follow it
3) each msg comes from server to my PC which means data traffic and also surfing cost.

Thanks. Cheran, TN, India.

Debra's Training Wheels

Tue, 09 Aug 2016 20:27:17 +0000

Being fully aware that the opinions of chatters carry little weight in the decisions you make regarding Ops, I'd still like to ask that you consider making Debra a full chanop sooner rather than later.

It's quite clear over the time that she's been in #lounge that she very much cares about the chatters and the quality of the chat experience. Too often has she been in chat when there are issues that she cannot handle because there is no Op around for her to partner with. It would benefit all of us if Debra was able to manage such issues when they arise, rather than sitting on the sidelines with the rest of us.

Just my two cents. Thanks for listening.

IRCD Modification Suggestion - Forced Ignore

Tue, 09 Aug 2016 18:53:46 +0000

I've seen several times in #Lounge chat, of ops asking people
to ignore each other.

Then usually that just goes unheeded and the people continue to
prattle on at each other, and disrupts the whole channel.

So my suggestion is, to create a command that forces a users
client to /silence +*!*@xxx a user.

So you could then use that command to silence both people from
reading each others text. They will likely not even notice that the
event took place, and chat can go on as normal.

Usage:

/fignore [client hostname] [hostmask to ignore]]]
/fignore Warren!*@* Xylophone!*@*

Forces 'Warren'' to ignore text from nickname 'Xylophone'

SSL and spell checker

Fri, 05 Aug 2016 09:04:15 +0000

Hi, I am sure my suggestion will be welcomed.

When I connected thru mibbit to here I had two options ( to choose will I connect using SSL, and I have a spell checker in my browser that worked only when I connected thru them.)

1. Many users would wanna use programs for spell checking like Grammarly or whatever, and are ridiculed here most of the time cause of their spelling ( i dont care but for some this starts being a trouble and they are scared to use main rooms when someone points out their spelling ). It worked for me when I connected trhu mibbit I would have a red underline every time.

2.Also everyone wants improved security and to feel secure, I know libra is not mibbit, but allowing user SSL option before they connect.And to have let's say online Logs would be cool if it could work.Not saying this is possible right now today.
everyone can type in mibbit and check out. * that you can have a working spell checker in the browser and also an option to have SSL, online logs connected to the account are more - less important. ehhh Thank you

If I sound terrible it's cause I just woke up. So good morning all and ty for reading me

Listening to #radio

Wed, 11 May 2016 15:49:11 +0000

A tip for anyone unable to hear the radio via the website, or a handy function for those using scripts. I had this info sent to me.
I don't know if it works for Macs but it's ok on Windows PC's. You need to be able to see filename extensions to be able to do this. eg. new notepad file.txt not simply new notepad file
The .txt extension is important. For simplicity I won't enter the steps to show filename extensions but if needed I will, later. It's fairly simple to do.

A handy place to do this is on your desktop. Right click the desktop and select ''New'', then select text document. Open the new file and on a single line type or copy and paste exactly as follows:

[playlist]NumberOfEntries=1File1=http://radio.librairc.net:4008/Title1=CenkLength1=-1Version=2

There is no space at the start of that line and there are no spaces throughout.

Click on ''File'' then ''Save'' and close the file. Then, right click the filename and rename it listen.pls
You'll will receive an alert that you are changing the filename extension and you must allow the change. After the change, click the file and it should open your default media player. If it does not work, you will need to right click the file and select ''Open With". Choose a media player and see if it works. If not, download Winamp from here: http://www.winamp.com/ and install it. Afterwards if when clicking the listen.pls file and it still won't open, right click the file again and select ''Open With''. If you don't see Winamp in the options, click the little plus sign to expand for more options.

Happy listening.

Religion Policy.

Fri, 25 Mar 2016 04:45:34 +0000

* Now talking in #Lounge
* Topic is ' There is now a new channel for religious debating, there will never be ops present in that room so debate till your hearts content... /join #Religion_UnOpped '

-ChanServ- [#Religion_UnOpped] Do not come and complain to ops about this room, you come here to debate at your own risk!!!

I am a bit disgruntled over this new policy of sending people away to a new channel.

Does this mean that one can not speak about the topic of religion at all?
or is it a topic of religion that has escalated to a point where it is debated about?

When I first joined this server, i posed a handful of rules, that is often setup on
several servers. that is.... no swearing, no discussing politics, no discussing religion,
and absolutely no racism.

So to have the topic of religion alone, to be set aside as a special case, seems a bit
unfair. Since my time here, I have rarely seen anyone in authority even uphold any policies
about racism. When that is much more severe than any heated religious debate.

I also don't see how you can can uphold the use of excessive swearing, over a religious
conversation.

Its my beliefs that, through discussing these issues, such as politics and religion,
that people are allowed to grow socially... having heard each others viewpoints,
allowing us to make more informed decisions.

I realize what I said earlier too.. about creating a set of rules that forbid even those topics alone.
and its kind of contradictory as to what I just said about being able to discuss it openly.

I acquired those rules i mentioned from a game server, that forbid them,
and i think the reason why they were implemented in the first place, was an
excessive amount of trolling, that distracted people from the game they
were playing. so considering chat, is just chat, and there is no extra task one
is performing... it makes sense to have some leeway on the things we should
discuss, as the conversation is not being used as a tool for distraction.

that being said, it usually is the case... its not a great idea to discuss religion/politics
with strangers, but I might also point out. I've been on this server for quite some
time, and I have had an abundance of conversations, both political and religious,
and i can rarely remember a time where someone left in a huff, or expressed any
anger about what was said... and on occasion, i have had some ops tell me to move on,
which i have always deemed to be fair, and assisted in changing the topic to
something new. I think dwelling on the topic, can be an issue, but as long as everyone
involved is mindful and respectful, of each others beliefs, i often consider it a growing
experience, just listening to what other people think, and considering new things.

you can't always guarantee that someone is going to be mature about the conversations
involved, and that's a sad thing, but we also shouldn't let it prevent us from having
meaningful conversation either. If we shelter ourselves all the time, we gain nothing,
we do not test our tolerance with each others beliefs, or discover a mutual appreciation
for the topics.

When I was on ircqnet, there used to be a channel called #witches and it was full of
people who believed in a different religion or set of beliefs than mine, and it was
considered a pagan belief. I showed them all the same respect they showed me,
and I met a lot of nice people along the way. I even met a buddhist there, who was
full of understanding, (perhaps this wasnt ircqnet lol), my point being... we had
many different walks of life there, and by being respectful, there was room for people
of all religions to coexist there. now thats a room i want to belong to.

If you singled out people who discuss religion, to go take a hike in an empty channel.
Then you would have to do the same for other topics that people are possibly offended
about... a debate channel for politics, a channel where people can swear in, a channel
about world wars, a channel for sexual immorality, a channel for server complaints, a
channel for drugs and alcohol, etc.

and if we send two people, who arn't mature enough to have a civil conversation
in public away, then how is it better, that we put two angry people in a room alone together,
with no intervention?

is it not a better policy, that if the conversation gets out of hand, we just curb it?

Return of the "Who's Who" Gallery

Character encoding

Mon, 23 Nov 2015 09:03:27 +0000

Hello!

I'm not into IRC server settings, but can anyone explain me why do ICQ and this server still use CP-1251 charset? As far as I know, modern IRC clients like last versions of mIRC do not support CP-1251 anymore. Maybe there exist better alternatives?

Channel names in URL Link

Sat, 21 Nov 2015 03:08:53 +0000

I hope you can find a way to allow users to type the channel name in the url to be able to enter or promote the channel directly.. for example

www.englishchat.com/#20_something

Host Mask

Thu, 19 Nov 2015 13:06:49 +0000

So I know I have already mentioned it to a couple people but figured I would give it one last go.

I would like the host mask to not change once someone identifies. If you keep it as the hashed hex numbers it makes it much easier for basic scripting techniques to work.

Say something as simple as an Alias tracker. They use the users host mask to identify them and add their alias to the list. If the user simply quits then rejoins with a different registered nick, then they will never show up in the alias list. I know this may not be useful for some, but many times people who are trying to stir up trouble or cause problems in a channel will use many different nicks to do so. Its just nice to be able to identify them before hand.

Or if you want a simple notification to let you know a friend has joined the channel even if they are using a different nick. Especially around the holidays when people pick a holiday nick. Now I know, once they start chatting you can pretty much tell who they are, but its just nice to know. Many times I am tabbed away for work or just afk, when I come back my script has sent me a notice of friends who have joined the channel.

This will work as it is now, but if they decide to use another registered nick, then not so much, unless I add the mask for every nick they own.
